I am buying a home with a mount for a flat panel TV above the fireplace. The builder only ran a coax cable to the mount, so no way to get an extended HDMI cable through the wall without serious work. Is anyone aware of a devise that converts the digital output (or recombines an analog signal) back to a coax output that can then be handeled by the televisions HD tuner? This way, I can place the cable box back at the coax home run and push the content through coax?

New to the board and looking forward to the help.

To send an HD signal from a cable box or satellite you need HDMI, DVI or components. Why would someone buy a flat panel TV and connect it with coax? Whoever built the house was pretty clueless.

Mike you may be able to use a cable card from your cable company and the coax will be all you need. With a cable card there is no need for a cable box but ther are some drawbacks to cable cards
